Top South East England Overnight Tours

No single event has affected Southampton more profoundly than the Titanic disaster. On this self-guided audio tour, you’ll trace the path of those connected to the famous ship, and hear haunting stories from crew members and passengers. You’ll also find out about the Titanic’s devastating aftermath, leaving hundreds of Southampton families without fathers, husbands, and sons. This tour starts at the Holyrood Church ruins. You’ll walk through Southampton’s historic streets and past boarding houses where crew members spent their final nights ashore. Along the way, you’ll discover how deeply embedded the Titanic was in the city’s fabric, with nearly every street losing someone to the disaster. You’ll hear about the lookouts who first spotted the iceberg, and the crew members who never returned home. The tour ends at Dock Gate 4. Walk in the footsteps of those who sailed on the “unsinkable” ship and experience how a single maritime disaster changed an entire city forever.

I have a great knowledge of Sussex and the local countryside, including the best paths to follow to the most stunning sites and views. From an ecological point of view, my tour is the only one that goes to both Charleston and Rathfinney without the use of private vehicles and is therefore completely sustainable. The walk is approximately 9 miles in total, and what better way to finish, than treating yourself with a spectacular Sunday roast, meal and bottle of divine English bubbles. I can tailor make the tour, so that you can eat and drink wherever you fancy en route. I can also include an uber from Rathfinney back to Seaford station as I've discovered that most people aren't keen to walk after a big lunch. Just let me know what you fancy.

Save money on your journey between Southampton Port and London Heathrow Airport, and opt for a shared transfer shuttle by an 8-seater minivan. You’ll skip the complications and inconvenience of traveling with all your luggage via public transport, yet enjoy a less costly alternative to a taxi or private transfer.
